This Weekend at the Box Office: 2007.Apr.23

[Hand of Evil]

I saw HOT FUZZ this weekend and thought it was very enjoyable, one of the few comedies I have laughted out loud at, I was not the only one.

 

[Angel Tarragon]

Good to see Disturbia doing so well. I'll support any movie Shia LaBeouf is in.

 

[Felon]

Damn, Grindhouse dropped off the top ten already...what a pity.

 

[Shalimar]

So did Pathfinder

 

[Sir Brennen]

The biggest movie was only 13 mil, though? Just waiting for the Hollywood bean-counting guys to start crying "Doom! DOOM!" again any minute.

Good to see Hot Fuzz ranked so high while being on so few screens. It really was a blast.

I don't think is will happen thsi year, while the weekend was down 18 percent from the same frame last year you have a number of big movies this year in Spiderman, Pirates, Harry and the 300, all that look to making this a very strong year.

9.7% Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

Even more shocking, based on some reports it was off the top ten LAST week! It's at number 14 right now. 300 is still beating it. And I don't mean in total dollars, I mean 300 is still beating it currently at the box office.

I feel like many of their movies these will become cult classics. Mainstream movie goers are not into these types of movies. Heck they were B movies in the 70's, during their hayday, should we really have expected it to be a blockbuster today? :\

They also cost $20,000 to make then

I agree, they will probably become cult hits. I still hope to see it in the theater.
